If it turns out that the Assad régime did use sarin in Ghouta, then logic suggests that perhaps it did so to test the West's resolve regarding any notional remaining "red line" that might dictate military action.
Perhaps not surprisingly, they all employed the same logic that had gotten the financial sector into trouble to get it out of it.
No one would dispute that they exist as distinct formal systems with their own axioms and primitives, but if these geometries are jointly reducible to logic only if logic is inconsistent, their existence suggests that, perhaps, as formalism claims, it is not the case there is one system of logic that is fundamental to all inquiries.
Perhaps in music, too, the harmonic progression holds its own geometric logic that needs to be honored before we consider the virtuosic embellishments above it?
That's logic that is (I think).
I like that logic, that's gambling logic.
The election's outcome defies logic, and perhaps that is the point.
Following this logic we might expect that perhaps 100 common variants exerting modest effects on risk (i.e. of low penetrance) are involved in determining susceptibility to multiple sclerosis, and might also expect that a small portion of the disease will turn out to have a distinct genetic basis related to rarer rather more penetrant alleles.
If we were to make choppy analogies, I would reply to this school of thought by pointing out that perhaps the logic holds because we do not count the funders of terrorism, and the United States.
Richard Scudamore's proposal for the 39th game may be flawed in terms of competitive balance, but the underlying logic that the Premier League has perhaps outgrown England makes a worrying amount of sense, particularly with overseas television rights and sponsorship deals on the rise.
